It's a long way to the top...

The Girl and I have been talking a lot lately about tact.
Like the fact that it's not actually nice to announce that you're smarter than everyone else - six-year-olds tend to be a little testy about those kind of sweeping statements and it tends to undermine your ability to find a friend to play hopscotch with at Recess.
So we talked about how everyone has a special talent or two, and maybe her special talent is 'learning' because she does pick things up so quickly.

Tonight, in the car, she announced very primly that she was going to be a teacher when she grew up because her special talent was 'learning'.
Then she asked him, what's your special talent?
He replied 'ROCK & ROLL BABY'.

According to the kids, The Man's talent is beer.
